Guys,
I am having issues cutting a straight hole. I am attempting to wire some 0.1582" +/- 0.0002" holes in a 0.210" thick plate; they appear to be tapered by about 0.0005" per pin gauge. All of the guides are less than a month old, so I don't think that is an issue. And, the carbides are fresh, and the head has been aligned; I just re aligned it, and made some test cuts; I'm not satisfied with the results. One rough cut, and two finish cuts...that should do (and has done) the trick....I don't understand...flushing is adequate; sealed on the bottom; upper nozzle is about 0.75" off of the part due to clamping....any suggestions??
Thanks,
Mark
